FM, i looked at the company trkr and think its not a bad investment.
My company has gone through a couple of buyouts over the last few years and one the purchasers used this companys system or one just like it to track the aquired assets from the purchase.
Bar codes for the market they are targeting make sense.
I read the posts at the rb board and saw something about dell and sony.
Those companys may use a bar code tracking idea like that but I think it will be part of a smart label system, hence not trkr's system.
The reason I say that is bar codes can be printed on the back of a smart label so why have two labels when you can get the whole job done with one.
The whole job being inventory tracking for the manufacturer(smart label) and asset management for the end user(bar code).
ie:smart label high volume and fixed devices for manufacturer and bar code low volume cheap and easily portable devices for end user.
I believe thats why they seem to be targeting smaller users like hotels and local goverments.
This could all change in the future as readers for smart labels become smaller but the bar code may be ingrained enough to hold that market for a long time.
Just my thoughts and thanks for the interest.
enjoy,
danny
